I have done a search database and I have got the results to come back correctly........ I would like to know how I get these results to appear as if in a table.....at the moment they are just appearing as lines of text......

<body bgcolor="FF9422">
<a href="javascript:history.go(-1);">Go back to Search</a>
<p><font color="#FFFFFF"><b>The Intermediarys that are in Your Area Are Listed
Below...</b></font></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>
<?php

mysql_connect (localhost, whatever, whatever);

mysql_select_db (intermediary);

if ($townorcounty == "")
{$townorcounty = '%';}

if ($county == "")
{$county = '%';}

$result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM members
WHERE (town LIKE '$townorcounty%'
OR county LIKE '$townorcounty%')
");

I don't know exactly what you mean, do you want you're result to be displayed in a table?? That would indeed be good for you're page layout. and the user wouldn't have to see the actual table:
html-example wich I use *VERY* often:

<body bgcolor="FF9422">
<a href="javascript:history.go(-1);">Go back to Search</a>
<p><font color="#FFFFFF"><b>The Intermediarys that are in Your Area Are Listed
Below...</b></font></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<?php

mysql_connect (localhost, tony, tony);

mysql_select_db (intermediary);

if ($townorcounty == "")
{$townorcounty = '%';}

if ($county == "")
{$county = '%';}

$result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM members
WHERE (town LIKE '$townorcounty%'
OR county LIKE '$townorcounty%')
");
